I’ve got a component that has an absolutely positioned item.
When I make an instance of the component, I’m not able to change the position of the absolutely positioned item. 🥲

Couldn’t seem to find a solution in the forum or Google.
Is this a bug? A feature 😂?

I know I can detach the instance to move the position, but I need to keep this as a component instance.

Thanks in advance! 🤗

You can’t move objects in instances, you have to do it in the main component.
